Hi all, I’m so excited on writing this post today! It’s
because, I finally have my very first lipstick from MAC Cosmetics! Not only
one, but two! After so long, learning make up. I finally own it! Okay, I have
been wanting their lipsticks for so long! But my boyfriend thinks that I have
too many lip products, that I should just stop buying for a while, and only get
things that I need. However, this time around, they’re actually gifts from my
beloved boyfriend! Surprise, surprise right? I thought, oh my god. How sweet of
him to do so. He knows I’ve been wanting it for so long. Why am I getting these
gift if you are wondering. I have been working under the same company for quite
some time. Specifically, for two years. So being a supportive boyfriend.
Yearly, he would give me presents. To congrats me, on standing strong for this
long. I know, how spoiled of me! Last year, I got a set of the Body Shop’s
limited edition set of body wash.
MAC Matte Lipstick in Diva
I was not expecting lipsticks at all, especially from MAC! I
am officially the happiest girl alive, at the moment! He got me two. One in the
matte range, in “Diva” and the other one in the amplified crème range in
“Craving”. Now my favourite one out of these two, is Diva. I must say, he knows
me best even on the selection of lipsticks that I would actually wear. I have
been loving, dark colours on my lips for so long! And Diva, I must say is
something I would wear every day! It is mostly like a very dark cranberries.
Like, a purple mix maroon kind colour which I love! It is what it is called
after all, “Diva”. LOVE! And, the matte texture. Amazing though, how it is very
easy to wear. However, there is a downside to this. I don’t know if it was just
me or anything but I was expecting it to be as matte as other lipstick out
there that it would last longer than this. I had this for a day on my lips, and
I had to reapply many many times, as the color do fades out. Even worst when I
am having a heavy meal. Everything would go off, just like that! Hmm.
MAC Amplified Creme Lipstick in Craving
Now, the one in “Craving” I find works best during a daily
basis. It’s definitely A to go lipstick, if you’re already having a heavy
makeup and wants something to tone down the look with a tinted but natural
lipstick. “Craving” is A to go! I’m actually grateful my boyfriend got me
these. Not only that, he also got me the lipsticks, from different range so I
could try which fit me best. The color “Craving” is like very taupe colour.
More neutral, and warm pink kind of tone. Something Kylie Jenner would wear, if
you get what I mean. Now the “amplified crème” as they called it is a lot
creamier that the “matte” ones. It is however, very pigmented. I am fine with
this one, it seems to work out very well. There’s still a lot of exploring to
do with MAC Lipsticks, I guess. If you're wondering how much this cost, it's actually RM 74 per bullet. Other than that, I can’t wait to try out more
from MAC!
